Item Game Theoretic Approaches to Massive Data Processing in Wireless Networks(IEEE Wireless Communications, 2/28/2018) Zheng, Zijie; Song, Lingyang; Han, Zhu; Li, Geoffrey Ye; Poor, H. VincentWireless communication networks are becoming highly virtualized with two-layer hierarchies, in which controllers at the upper layer with tasks to achieve can ask a large number of agents at the lower layer to help realize computation, storage, and transmission functions. Through offloading data processing to the agents, the controllers can accomplish otherwise prohibitive big data processing. Incentive mechanisms are needed for the agents to perform the controllers' tasks in order to satisfy the corresponding objectives of controllers and agents. In this article, a hierarchical game framework with fast convergence and scalability is proposed to meet the demand for real-time processing for such situations. Possible future research directions in this emerging area are also discussed.Item Real-Time Profiling of Fine-Grained Air Quality Index Distribution Using UAV Sensing(IEEE Internet of Things Journal, 11/27/2017) Yang, Yuzhe; Zheng, Zijie; Bian, Kaigui; Song, Lingyang; Han, ZhuGiven significant air pollution problems, air quality index (AQI) monitoring has recently received increasing attention. In this paper, we design a mobile AQI monitoring system boarded on the unmanned-aerial-vehicles, called ARMS, to efficiently build fine-grained AQI maps in real-time. Specifically, we first propose the Gaussian plume model on the basis of the neural network (GPM-NN), to physically characterize the particle dispersion in the air. Based on GPM-NN, we propose a battery efficient and adaptive monitoring algorithm to monitor AQI at the selected locations and construct an accurate AQI map with the sensed data. The proposed adaptive monitoring algorithm is evaluated in two typical scenarios, a 2-D open space like a roadside park, and a 3-D space like a courtyard inside a building. The experimental results demonstrate that our system can provide higher prediction accuracy of AQI with GPM-NN than other existing models, while greatly reducing the power consumption with the adaptive monitoring algorithm.Item Resource Allocation in Wireless Powered Relay Networks: A Bargaining Game Approach(IEEE Transactions on Vehicular Technology, 12/20/2016) Zheng, Zijie; Song, Lingyang; Niyato, Dusit; Han, ZhuInformation and power transfer in mobile relay networks have recently emerged simultaneously, where the relay can harvest the radio frequency (RF) energy and then use this energy for data forwarding and system operation. Most of the previous works do not consider that the relay may have its own objectives, such as using the harvested energy for its own transmission instead of maximizing transmission of the network. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a Nash bargaining approach to balance the information transmission efficiency of source-destination pairs and the harvested energy of the relay in a wireless powered relay network with multiple source-destination pairs and one relay. We analyze and prove that the Nash bargaining problem has several desirable properties such as the discreteness and quasi-concavity, when it is decomposed into three subproblems: the energy transmission power optimization, the power control for data transmission, and the time division between energy transmission and data transmission. Based on the theoretical analysis, we propose an alternating power control and time-division algorithm to find a suboptimal solution. Simulation results clearly show and demonstrate the properties of the problem and the convergence of our algorithm.
